← Nature & AnimalsWhich consequence results when insufficient ecdysone secretion occurs?
A)Arrested molting and prevented metamorphosis✓
B)Premature metamorphosis and adult structure
C)Accelerated growth and earlier reproduction
D)Enhanced larval feeding and increased size
💡 Explanation
Arrested molting happens because ecdysone triggers the molting process and metamorphosis; low ecdysone means this cannot happen because of hormonal signaling failure. Therefore, molting pauses, rather than accelerating growth due to other hormones.
